• How much does it cost to hire Brad for a estate litigation case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Brad walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Brad offer a free consultation?

  Brad charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Brad's office. Some estate litigation attorneys offer free consults — check Brad's current terms during booking.

• How long do estate litigation cases in Louisiana typically take?

  Simple estate litigation matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Brad gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Brad take my case if I'm outside Covington?

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Brad?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Brad will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Brad accepting new estate litigation clients right now?
